The Weeknd plays Kai Tak Stadium in Hong Kong tonight, October 25, 2026, with Live Nation listing an 8:15 p.m. local start, as his After Hours Til Dawn tour reaches the final stretch of its Asia leg. The Hong Kong run covers four nights, October 24, 25, 30 and 31, at Kai Tak Stadium, before the tour moves to Kuala Lumpur for its final two shows.
This is a Canadian stadium story at global scale. The Weeknd, the Toronto born singer whose catalogue runs from House of Balloons through Starboy to his recent trilogy, has turned After Hours Til Dawn into one of the highest grossing tours in music history. Reporting on the Kuala Lumpur leg puts the tour’s gross above one billion US dollars, making it the highest grossing tour by a male solo artist. Tonight’s Hong Kong show sits inside that history, not beside it, and it is the show Canadian fans should be watching this weekend.
The Weeknd Hong Kong: The Final Asia Leg
The Asia leg is presented as the final leg of the tour, and its itinerary explains why these dates carry extra weight. The leg began on September 19 in Japan, reached Singapore’s National Stadium on October 3, played Goyang Stadium in Seoul on October 7 and 8, and filled Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok on October 11, 12 and 13. Hong Kong follows, with four Kai Tak Stadium nights, and the tour then closes at TM Stadium Nasional in Kuala Lumpur on November 4 and 5, 2026, with November 5 listed as the final scheduled show of the entire tour.
The Seoul stop produced the Asia leg’s most talked about moment so far. On October 8, BLACKPINK’s Jennie joined The Weeknd in Seoul for the first ever live performance of their collaboration One of the Girls, originally released in connection with HBO’s The Idol. The appearance brought the two artists together onstage after years of anticipation around the 2023 hit, and it set the tone for a final leg built on moments that can only happen on this tour, in these cities, at this scale.
A Surprise Song, and a Trilogy on Stage
Reports from the Hong Kong run describe a surprise new song titled Hong Kong debuted during the Asian leg, arriving during a tour that has continued to generate major moments throughout the region. That report, published on October 24, should be read as a tour moment rather than a release announcement, since no studio version has been confirmed alongside it. What is confirmed is the shape of the show itself. The tour celebrates a trilogy of albums: After Hours from 2020, Dawn FM from 2022, and Hurry Up Tomorrow from January 2025, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 490,500 album equivalent units in its first week and broke Spotify’s 2025 launch record with 302 million streams in seven days.
The Weeknd has suggested Hurry Up Tomorrow may be his final release under the name, telling interviewers he wants to move on from the persona that has defined his career. The quote that has travelled furthest from those interviews is short, and it frames the whole final leg.
He wants to kill the Weeknd.
Read in context, that is not a retirement announcement. It is an artist describing the end of a character, at the end of a tour built around three albums that told one long story. The Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur shows are therefore not just more stadium dates. They are the closing chapters of that story, performed in the largest rooms in Asia, with the trilogy’s full production behind them.
What Comes After Kuala Lumpur
The practical details for the final stretch are now fixed. After tonight’s Kai Tak Stadium show, The Weeknd plays Hong Kong again on October 30 and 31, then closes the tour in Kuala Lumpur on November 4 and 5, with the November 5 show listed as the tour’s final date. The Kuala Lumpur shows are all seated, run approximately two to two and a half hours, and feature Japanese artists Creepy Nuts and Yousuke Yukimatsu as opening acts for the Asia leg. For fans who cannot be in Hong Kong tonight, those two Kuala Lumpur nights are the last chance to see this production as it was designed.
For Canadian music, the significance is plain. A Toronto artist who began with mixtapes released for free now closes a billion dollar stadium tour in Asia, with a Canadian songbook at its centre and a final leg that is being documented night by night. Tonight in Hong Kong, that story reaches Kai Tak Stadium. In eleven days, in Kuala Lumpur, it reaches its final show. The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn era, which began in 2022, is ending the way it deserves to end: on stage, in front of a stadium, with the trilogy complete.
